living by memory

Lyrics

i work the graveyard shift at this station, down on twelfth, spend my time selling cigarettes and talking, mostly to myself, no one waits for me at home, getting used to life alone, living by memory, eat, sleep, breathe, just mindless routines, slowly killing me, living by memory, living by memory, i remember it like yesterday, it was a tuesday, october '92, there was a wreck out on the highway, you might have heard it on the news, always think it's someone else, in a moment i was by myself, living by memory, eat, sleep, breathe, just mindless routines, slowly killing me, there's a peace that waits for me, at heaven's door, but tonight my past, is all i'm living for, and my memories, eat, sleep, breathe, surviving on used-to-be's, slowly killing me, living by memories, eat, sleep, breathe, surviving on used-to-be's, slowly killing me, living by memory, living by memory
